This is my glorious Lipstick Plant, it's a Black Pagoda, Aeschynanthus radicans. People get these for the flowers. I picked this one for leaves. The flowers are little less exciting than other species, more muted yellow and some green, unlike the reds of other species. But really look at these leaves! It's a totally beautiful plant even when it isn't blooming. It's also been fast growing this spring. Almost double in size in a couple weeks, which makes it an even more satisfying plant. I took these pics about a week ago and since then it's covered in flower buds. Basically just plant joy all around.
